The desperate leader of the last Ukrainian troops in Mariupol has called on the West to help them get out.
‘We are only defending one object, the Azovstal plant where, imn addition to military personnel, there are also civilians who have fallen victim to this war.’‘We ask them to use the procedure of “extraction” and take us to the territory of a third-party state.’ The commander went on to say ‘this could be the last appeal of our lives’, fearing the last of his troops may be ‘facing our last days, if not hours’.
The final battle for the city is looming as Russian forces have mostly taken control of it – apart from the Azovstal steel plant.
